As of 2007-06, TshwaneLex/tlTerm can now be launched with an ODBC database specified as command-line parameter (e.g. “odbc|datasourcename|tl_”), allowing e.g. Desktop or Quicklaunch shortcuts to be created directly that directly open a particular ODBC database. To do the same but using the “cached ODBC” interface, use “cached” instead of “odbc”, e.g. “cached|datasourcename|tl_”.
